Argentina and Chile will need to get over the disappointment of their loss in the semis respectively when they meet in the 3rd place match of the 2019 Copa America. The two quality teams met in the finals of 2015 and 2016 edition of the tournament and hence this game will feel a bit different to them. Argentina were the better side in their 2-0 defeat at the hands of Brazil which was heart-breaking for the fans. For Chile, the team lost its way completely against Peru who clearly were the underdogs in the game. Brazil vs Peru, Copa America 2019 Final: Brazil Banking on Defense Against Peru.
Argentina will be happy with Lionel Messi’s comment post the Brazil game where he praised the attitude of the squad and committed himself to the long term project. He will link up with Sergio Aguero and Lautaro Martinez who have both looked sharp in the tournament so far. One of the worries for Argentina is the defence with Nicolas Otamendi looking shaky at the back. In midfield, Angel Di Maria is likely to be drafted in where he will be looking to stretch the Chilean defence with his pace. Rodrigo De Paul and Leandro Daniel Paredes have the all-important task of controlling the tempo of the game from midfield.

Chile will field several players in the playing eleven that have denied Argentina the title in the last two editions. Arturo Vidal, Alexis Sanchez, and Eduardo Vargas are some of the big names that are in the twilight of their careers. Their golden generation would love to get the better of the La Albiceleste once again. The back four led by skipper Gary Medel is the strength of the side and is difficult to get past. 34-year-old Jose Fuenzalida has defied his age to put in some decent shift in the wing and Argentina will have to keep a close eye on him.
